[QUOTE="Manbearcat, post: 6057499, member: 6696971"] An absolutely excellent idea for a post and a monumentally excellent first post. Would xp you 10 times if I could. Given that they understand the relationship of Strength, Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma to the physical world, they should be able to smooth that out and extract the signal embedded in the physical relationship of level to Skill acumen with skills that leverage those ability modifiers. Given enough time, observation and data points, they should be able to work out: - the relationship of focused training/experience in any specific Skill discipline to practitioners level (eg level + 3 on Class Skills). - the relevant Class and Cross-class skills for each class (that they are aware of). Once they know those values, they should be able to: - work out the minimum threshold Skill level required to reliably (95 % success rate) achieve tasks and then map out the DC table. - discover that there is always a 5 % failure rate regardless of Skill level or ease of task * [SIZE=1]* and then cry themselves to sleep every night or commit sepuku over the futility of it all.[/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
